    Suggestion on Tractor Security

    If someone sees it and wants it, they will come and get it and winch it onto a trailer and take it away. Hidden GPS tracker so it can be found again.

    m105x won't start or turn over (no glow plug indicator lighted)

    If I'm correct, this engine doesn't have glow plugs, it has an intake heater, same as my diesel Landcruiser. On my cruiser it doesn't actually come on until after the engine has fired, on yours, I don't know the circuit logic, it may be initiated by the output of the alternator, or a manual...

    Milky hydraulic fluid?

    Milky can be aerated, or contaminated, by different things. Water is common, when washing the machine water gets in around breather rubbers that have shrunk over time, and pressure washed into the breathers, moisture (water vapor) is drawn in from hot cold cycles in the air over time, then...

    Milky hydraulic fluid?

    X2 on water and oil change! If you crack your drain plugs after sitting overnight, the water will have separated and be on the bottom, also don't forget your rear axle drain plugs if you have them.

    Glow plug switch malfunction

    Additionally to above, WSM for L3200 here, it is the previous series but you may glean some info from it, also key switch testing from L3200 may help. Check to see they haven't jumpered wires across the back of the switch, or have them in the wrong place...

    Info to save ?

    Missing is the all important 12mm, and I suppose for you imperial guys, 1/2". There are a few different metric standards, thread size to head size, Japanese is different to German, so when I go down to the German Aldi store when they have a special on ratchet ring/open enders, I find that...

    MX5000D safety circuit problem

    Here is a schematic from another kubota tractor, while it may not be the same as yours it gives you some ideas on how the general logic of the circuit works. First look at the PTO and HST switches, the top line of the switches goes to the "engine RUN" part of the circuit, the bottom line of...

    MX5000D safety circuit problem

    Hi cabbott, Do you currently have the seat switch bypassed? Is it a 2 wire or 4 wire seat switch?

    MX5000D safety circuit problem

    Hey NIW, Your listed WSM above is floating around the net and doesn't list/show all the safety's you have previously noted. I expect he has that one. Using your divine powers, perhaps there is another manual, or possibly a supplement for this model tractor with more features? Or maybe the one...

    "New" L345 owner questions

    Thanks NIW, I had thought of the term "quenching" of the valve but didn't think the air would be enough, however saturated with diesel as well would add some thermal mass. EDIT: Got me thinking about gas turbines where water is injected to give more power output!

    B26 PTO Stuck, shaft will not turn, lever will not move to engage PTO.

    So is the lever seized on the shaft/pin, or is the hydraulic valve seized? The PTO output shaft has clutches/brake in it so I would try to get the valve selected first. EDIT: Just re read your first post, not the lever, so the valve must be seized, if it won't move by gentle tapping back and...

    "New" L345 owner questions

    I think he means the cooler intake air being pushed back out past the hot exhaust valves. While I wouldn't have thought this would cause damage as the intake air is heated some as it comes into the chamber, I'm prepared to be schooled and hopefully learn the reasons along the way.

    B26 PTO Stuck, shaft will not turn, lever will not move to engage PTO.

    As a rental BH, these things were probably disconnected originally on purpose. Hopefully with some PB blaster hopefully you will get it to engage. Try a light tap with a hammer back and forwards to see if it will move slightly. Have a look online at the kubota site for their parts...

    Electrical Problem

    Faulty head light switch vibrating on perhaps, check fuses for stop solenoid. Check to see if dynamo is charging.
